Synopsis

Knowing they need to clean up after Ken messed up in the Digi-World they help Digimon rebuild it. They help out but suddenly Davis wants Veemon to normal digivolve like T.K., thinking Kari would like him more than T.K. He comes up with these crazy schemes to make him digivolve, all of which end in failure. Eventually, Veemon demands to know why Davis is trying to make him digivolve and Davis confesses. Veemon retorts that Gatomon wouldn't like him more if Davis could digivolve, to which Davis replies that she doesn't love him enough now. Veemon takes offense, but when Tortomon chases them, Veemon finally digivolves into ExVeemon! He defeats Tortomon and they go back to work.

Other notes

Animation errors

As Yolei and Cody run into the computer room, for a brief moment, Yolei's beret flashes the same color as her hair, then the same color as Upamon.

As Yolei is opening the gate to the Digital World, her D-3 has no buttons and is extremely elongated.

When Davis and Veemon are carrying a log, the Digimon helping them appear to be Vegiemon in one shot, then RedVegiemon in the next. Since Vegiemon do not feature anywhere else in this episode, it can probably be assumed that the error is in drawing RedVegiemon as Vegiemon (rather than vice-versa).

When T.K. is talking to Kari in the paddies, Gatomon's paws are colored white.

Dubbing changes

The reason Veemon becomes mad at Davis in the original is because Davis hits him on the head (as part of his next plan to make Veemon digivolve). This moment is removed from the English dub.

In the original version, when Davis and Veemon run into Tortomon, they find him urinating, which is why he becomes angry with them. Following this, at the cliff-edge, Davis asks Tortomon to wash his hands before attacking them, making him even angrier. Then, after being defeated, Tortomon urinates again (explaining why Davis and ExVeemon cover their eyes), except this time, he does wash his hands.
